  1. Steve ..i have seen so many people test this machine all over the world and i havent heard of them being in that ground where a typical vlf wouldnt just work. 

    Is there is something special about GM that no other detector GB2 or GMT or any other vlf has in abilty to work in hot ground and dealing with hot rock.  

    Just curious.  . 

    I would be recieving mines next weekend. ! Im excited already by all the great reviews. Thanks Steve and everyone else ..

  2. Okay. . So i have been able to read a review where the GM1000 have gotten a good signal on a 11grain nugget a 6" in hot dirt and a 5 G nugget at around 10 inches screaming. . 

    This test was done in a hot pi test bed and the 11 grain nugget was pulled out in the field on wet soil. Heres the review.  http://www.goldprospectors.org/News/News-Details/ArtMID/3269/ArticleID/201/A-Field-Test-MINELAB-GOLD-MONSTER-1000

     

  3. Hey.. i want to clear somethings that is not mentioned here. When dealing with suction is not all JUST engine HP is more about the GPM.  Meaning two 6hp pumps will produce 700 and something GMP with a higher PSI. While a 16hp engine  will be around the 500 gpm with a slightly less psi. 

    One larger engine will produce suction but not as much as a two engine combo using even a regular power jet.  

    And like steve explain is a depth thing as soon need to lift 5" rocks 8-10 feet out of the water it takes away a whole lot of the suction to justify.

  4. I would like to see how better the ATX does with his new coils. I was interested in buying a atx after seeing bearkat videos but i also saw what a GPX could do with a NF 17x13 coil. It as sensitive as the ATX while pulling out 1g nuggets at depth deeper than the atx would see a 2g nugget. 

    This to me takes away all good things you normally hear good about the ATX like good overall performance in just one setting and working close as good as GPX.

     

     

  5. Steve have tested the newer mono coil. It suppose to be shockproof and more well balanced.

    But out of the two newer coils the 11x13 DD would be the best coil for the atx. Since its naturally more resistance to high mineralization and the iron check mode only works with dd coils.  We are waiting on steve to actually do some more testing with the two coils to tell the real difference.
